Description
This application claims the priority benefit of China application serial no. 202110888723.X, filed on Aug. 2, 2021. The entirety of the above-mentioned patent application is hereby incorporated by reference herein and made a part of this specification.
The disclosure relates to a display panel, and in particular to a touch display panel.
The application of displays is becoming more and more extensive, such as household audio-visual entertainment, information display billboards in public places, displays for e-sports, and mobile electronic products. In recent years, the application of displays in the automotive field or wearable electronic products has gradually expanded, such as vehicle rearview mirrors, vehicle dashboards, and multi-function electronic watches/wristbands. Most of the displays mounted on such electronic devices have touch functions. Since in-cell touch technology facilitates thinness, the in-cell touch technology has gradually become one of the mainstream technologies for touch displays. A technical solution in which a common electrode layer for display is divided into multiple electrode patterns to simultaneously serve as touch sensing electrodes is proposed. Such design allows the display chip and the touch chip of such touch display panel to be integrated, thereby reducing the production cost and increasing the process yield of subsequent modules. However, with the improvement in the resolution of display images, for the touch display panels adopting such solution, when performing the image quality detection of the panel, low grayscale test images are prone to phenomenon such as checkerboard and color shift, which affects the judgment result of the display quality of the panel, thereby causing false detection and affecting the yield of the subsequent process.
The disclosure provides a touch display panel with better production yield.
According to an embodiment of the disclosure, the touch display panel includes a pixel circuit substrate, a color filter substrate, and a display medium layer. The pixel circuit substrate has a display area and a peripheral area outside the display area. The pixel circuit substrate includes multiple pixel structures, multiple data lines, multiple touch sensing electrodes, multiple touch signal lines, and at least one test circuit. The pixel structures are disposed in the display area, and each has an active element and a pixel electrode electrically connected to each other. The data lines are electrically connected to multiple active elements of the pixel structures. The touch sensing electrodes are disposed in the display area, are overlapped with multiple pixel electrodes of the pixel structures, and are structurally separated from each other. The touch signal lines are electrically connected to the touch sensing electrodes. The at least one test circuit is disposed in the peripheral area and is electrically connected to at least part of the touch signal lines or the data lines. The test circuit includes a peripheral line, a first test pad, and a second test pad. The peripheral line extends from a first side of the display area to a second side of the display area. The first side is opposite to the second side. The first test pad and the second test pad are respectively disposed on the first side and the second side of the display area and are electrically connected to the peripheral line. The color filter substrate is disposed opposite to the pixel circuit substrate. The display medium layer is disposed between the pixel circuit substrate and the color filter substrate.

Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments of the disclosure, and examples of the exemplary embodiments are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Whenever possible, the same reference numerals are used in the drawings and description to indicate the same or similar parts.
The display medium layer 300 is, for example, a liquid crystal layer, and multiple liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer are, for example, operated in twist deformation (TN), vertical alignment (VA), in-plane switching (IPS), optically compensated birefringence (OCB), electrically controlled birefringence (ECB), or other suitable liquid crystal modes, which is not limited by the disclosure.
The pixel circuit substrate 100 has a display area DA and a peripheral area PA other than the display area DA. The pixel circuit substrate 100 includes a substrate 110, multiple pixel structures PX, multiple data lines DL, and multiple scan lines GL. For example, the data lines DL may be arranged on the substrate 110 along a direction X and extend in a direction Y, and the scan lines GL may be arranged on the substrate 110 along the direction Y and extend in the direction X, wherein the direction X is optionally perpendicular to the direction Y, but not limited thereto. The pixel structures PX may be respectively disposed in the pixel areas (not shown) and are respectively electrically connected to the corresponding data line DL and the corresponding scan line GL. More specifically, the pixel structure PX includes an active element T and a pixel electrode PE electrically connected to each other, wherein the active element T is electrically connected between the pixel electrode PE and the data line DL (or the scan line GL).
Furthermore, the pixel circuit substrate 100 further includes multiple touch sensing electrodes and multiple touch signal lines. The touch sensing electrodes that are structurally separated from each other are respectively electrically connected to the corresponding touch signal line and are overlapped with the pixel electrodes PE of the pixel structures PX in a normal direction (for example, a direction Z) on the surface of the substrate 110. In the embodiment, the touch sensing electrodes have different functions during different operating times. For example, during a touch time, the touch sensing electrodes serve as the touch sensing electrodes; and during a display time, the touch sensing electrodes may also serve as common electrodes of display pixels.
For example, in the embodiment, the touch sensing electrodes may be arranged into four touch electrode strings TES along the direction X, and the number of touch sensing electrodes of each touch electrode string TES is four, which are respectively a touch sensing electrode TE1, a touch sensing electrode TE2, a touch sensing electrode TE3, and a touch sensing electrode TE4, but not limited thereto. The four touch sensing electrodes are arranged on the substrate 110 along the direction Y and are respectively electrically connected to a touch signal line TL1, a touch signal line TL2, a touch signal line TL3, and a touch signal line TL4. It should be noted that in the embodiment, the number of touch sensing electrodes is illustratively exemplified by sixteen, which does not mean that the disclosure is limited by the content disclosed in the drawings. In other embodiments, the number of touch sensing electrodes configured on the touch display panel in a horizontal direction or a vertical direction may be adjusted according to different product requirements. For example, the touch sensing electrodes may be arranged into q touch electrode strings TES along the direction X, and each touch electrode string TES has p touch sensing electrodes, where p and q are positive integers greater than 1.
Generally speaking, before bonding the touch display panel and a driving circuit substrate, the image quality of the touch display panel is detected to eliminate any display abnormality of the touch display panel before proceeding with a subsequent assembly process to avoid causing unnecessary cost loss. Therefore, the touch display panel further includes a test circuit disposed in the peripheral area PA and configured to generate a detection image. In the embodiment, a test circuit TC of the pixel circuit substrate 100 is optionally electrically connected to the touch signal lines. In detail, the test circuit TC includes a peripheral line PL and two test pads TPa and TPb. The peripheral line PL extends from a first side DAs1 of the display area DA to a second side DAs2 of the display area and is electrically connected to the touch signal lines. Here, the first side DAs1 and the second side DAs2 are, for example, two opposite sides of the display area DA in the direction X, but not limited thereto.
It should be noted that the two test pads TPa and TPb of the test circuit TC are respectively disposed on the first side DAs1 and the second side DAs2 of the display area DA and are electrically connected to two opposite end portions of the peripheral line PL. Accordingly, a detection machine may transmit test signals from the two opposite sides (for example, the left and right sides of FIG. 2 ) of the display area DA to the touch sensing electrodes via the two test pads TPa and TPb to prevent the test signals from attenuating as the transmission path becomes longer, thereby improving the issue of any unexpected pattern or/and color shift appearing in the detection image. In other words, the detection accuracy rate of the display quality can be increased, thereby improving the overall yield of the touch display panel 10 in the subsequent assembly process.
Other embodiments will be listed below to describe the disclosure in detail, wherein the same components will be marked with the same reference numerals, and the description of the same technical content will be omitted. For the omitted parts, please refer to the above embodiment, which will not be repeated.
In the embodiment, multiple touch sensing electrodes may be arranged into a first touch electrode string TES1, a second touch electrode string TES2, a third touch electrode string TES3, and a fourth touch electrode string TES4, and the touch electrode strings may be arranged on the substrate 110 along the direction X. It should be noted that multiple touch signal lines TL-A electrically connected to the first touch electrode string TES1 and the third touch electrode string TES3 are electrically connected to a peripheral line PL1 of the test circuit TC1, and multiple touch signal lines TL-B electrically connected to the second touch electrode string TES2 and the fourth touch electrode string TES4 are electrically connected to a peripheral line PL2 of the test circuit TC2. Two opposite end portions of the peripheral line PL1 of the test circuit TC1 are respectively provided with two test pads TP1 a, TP1 b and TP1 c. Similarly, two opposite end portions of the peripheral line PL2 of the test circuit TC2 are respectively provided with two test pads TP2 a, TP2 b and TP2 c.
On the other hand, in the embodiment, the data lines may include multiple first data lines DL1, multiple second data lines DL2, and multiple third data lines DL3, and the first data lines DL1, the second data lines DL2, and the third data lines DL3 are alternately arranged in the direction X. For example, in the embodiment, the pixel structure PX electrically connected to the first data line DL1 is suitable for displaying red, the pixel structure PX electrically connected to the second data line DL2 is suitable for displaying green, and the pixel structure PX electrically connected to the third data line DL3 is suitable for displaying blue, but not limited thereto.
The first data lines DL1 may be electrically connected to a peripheral line PL3 of the test circuit TC3, the second data lines DL2 may be electrically connected to a peripheral line PL4 of the test circuit TC4, and the third data lines DL3 may be electrically connected to a peripheral line PL5 of the test circuit TCS. The peripheral line PL3, the peripheral line PL4, and the peripheral line PL5 respectively extend from the first side DAs1 of the display area DA to the second side DAs2 of the display area DA, and respective two end portions are respectively provided with two test pads. More specifically, the two opposite end portions of the test circuit TC3 are provided with test pads TP3 a and TP3 b, the two opposite end portions of the test circuit TC4 are provided with test pads TP4 a and TP4 b, and the two opposite end portions of the test circuit TC5 are provided with test pads TP5 a and TP5 b.
The two test pads are disposed on the two opposite end portions of the peripheral line of each of the test circuits, and the detection machine transmits the corresponding test signals from the two opposite sides (for example, the left and right sides of FIG. 3 ) of the display area DA to the touch sensing electrodes or the pixel structures PX via the two test pads, the test signals may be prevented from attenuating as the transmission path becomes longer, thereby improving the issue of any unexpected pattern or/and color shift appearing in the detection image.
It should be noted that in the embodiment, the number of test circuits electrically connected to the touch electrode strings is illustratively exemplified by two, which does not mean that the disclosure is limited by the content disclosed in the drawings. For example, in other embodiments, the pixel circuit substrate may have m test circuits, and the touch electrode strings are electrically connected to the m test circuits, where m is a positive integer greater than 2.
Therefore, the detection machine may transmit corresponding test signals from the middle of the display area DA and the two opposite sides of the display area DA to the pixel structures PX via the three test pads to further prevent the test signals from attenuating as the transmission path becomes longer, thereby improving the issue of any unexpected pattern or/and color shift appearing in the detection image. It should be understood that the disclosure does not limit the number of test pads connected to each test circuit. For example, in other embodiments, the test circuit may have n test pads, where n is a positive integer greater than 1 and not equal to 3.
Specifically, in the pixel circuit substrate 100A shown in FIG. 3 , the test circuits connected to the touch electrode strings, such as the test circuit TC1 and the test circuit TC2, may also be provided with three test pads similar to the configuration of the test circuit TC3A, the test circuit TC4A, and the test circuit TCSA of the embodiment, and the three test pads are evenly distributed on an extension path of a corresponding peripheral line to shorten the length of the path for transmitting test signals from the detection machine to the touch electrode strings.
It is particularly noted that each test circuit is electrically connected to one of the touch sensing electrodes of each of the touch electrode strings. For example, the test circuit TC1B is electrically connected to the touch sensing electrode TE1 of the first touch electrode string TES1, the touch sensing electrode TE4 of the second touch electrode string TES2, the touch sensing electrode TE1 of the third touch electrode string TES3, and the touch sensing electrode TE4 of the fourth touch electrode string TES4 respectively via multiple touch signal lines TL1A and multiple touch signal lines TL4B. The test circuit TC2B is electrically connected to the touch sensing electrode TE2 of the first touch electrode string TES1, the touch sensing electrode TE1 of the second touch electrode string TES2, the touch sensing electrode TE2 of the third touch electrode string TES3, and the touch sensing electrode TE1 of the fourth touch electrode string TES4 respectively via multiple touch signal lines TL2A and multiple touch signal lines TL1B. The test circuit TC3B is electrically connected to the touch sensing electrode TE3 of the first touch electrode string TES1, the touch sensing electrode TE2 of the second touch electrode string TES2, the touch sensing electrode TE3 of the third touch electrode string TES3, and the touch sensing electrode TE2 of the fourth touch electrode string TES4 respectively via multiple touch signal lines TL3A and multiple touch signal lines TL2B. The test circuit TC4B is electrically connected to the touch sensing electrode TE4 of the first touch electrode string TES1, the touch sensing electrode TE3 of the second touch electrode string TES2, the touch sensing electrode TE4 of the third touch electrode string TES3, and the touch sensing electrode TE3 of the fourth touch electrode string TES4 respectively via multiple touch signal lines TL4A and multiple touch signal lines TL3B.
In other words, in the embodiment, the number of touch sensing electrodes of each touch electrode string connected to each test circuit is one. Therefore, it can be known that each touch electrode string has four touch sensing electrodes through the configured number of the test circuits. However, the disclosure is not limited thereto. According to other embodiments, the number of touch sensing electrodes of each touch electrode string may also be q, where q is a positive integer not equal to 4.
Furthermore, in the embodiment, the number of test pads configured for each test circuit is three, and the test pads are respectively connected to two opposite end portions of a peripheral line thereof and a middle portion of the peripheral line. Here, the middle portion of the peripheral line refers to a portion where the peripheral line is roughly aligned with the middle of the display area DA in the direction Y, and the two end portions of the peripheral line are roughly aligned with the two opposite sides of the display area DA in the direction Y. Compared with the test circuit TC shown in FIG. 2 , the test circuit of the embodiment also has test pads disposed in the middle portion of the peripheral line, such as a test pad TP1 c of the test circuit TC1B, a test pad TP2 c of the test circuit TC2B, a test pad TP3 c of the test circuit TC3B, and a test pad TP4 c of the test circuit TC4B. Accordingly, it is possible to further prevent test signals from attenuating as the transmission path becomes longer during the process of transmitting the test signals to the touch sensing electrodes (that is, common electrodes during the display time), thereby improving the issue of any unexpected pattern or/and color shift appearing in the detection image.
It should be understood that the disclosure does not limit the number of test pads connected to each test circuit. For example, in other embodiments, the test circuit may have n test pads, where n is a positive integer greater than 1 and not equal to 3.
As described above, in the touch display panel of the embodiment of the disclosure, the test circuit located in the peripheral area is electrically connected to at least part of the touch signal lines or the data lines in the display area via the peripheral line. Through disposing the first test pad and the second test pad electrically connected to the peripheral line on the two opposite sides of the display area, the test signals may be prevented from attenuating as the transmission path becomes longer, thereby improving the issue of any unexpected pattern or/and color shift appearing in the detection image, which helps to improve the production yield of the touch display panel.
Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate but not to limit the technical solutions of the disclosure. Although the disclosure has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, persons skilled in the art should understand that they may still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments or equivalently replace some or all of the technical features. However, the modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the disclosure.
